Kissing Cardinals
Two cardinals. One kiss. A thousand feelings.
Not just beautiful, Cardinals are one of the few bird species that mate for life—and courtship looks a lot like love. The male feeds the female ‘beak to beak’, a gesture that looks just like a kiss. So of course, we had to immortalize it in steel.
Whether you’re celebrating a partner, honoring someone you’ve loved and lost, or just a hopeless romantic, our Kissing Cardinals are a striking, meaningful gift. Made from American Corten® steel, this piece is built to last as long as real devotion does.

AS SEEN IN
Each Metalbird is crafted from Corten® Steel, a premium, weathering steel made to last.
When it meets the elements, it doesn’t rust like your old BBQ. It transforms.
That change you’re seeing? That’s patina. A tough, protective outer layer that seals the steel, adds character, and preserves your bird for decades.
This isn’t paint. It’s nature’s way of ageing gracefully.
The Patina Process:
At first, you’ll notice bright orange spots (we call this the teenage phase). Soon enough, the whole bird will turn a bold orange, slowly shifting into deep burnt umber. Eventually, it settles into a moody charcoal that feels like it’s always belonged.
The Result? A piece of industrial art with a heartbeat. No peeling, no fading, just a bird that gets better with age.
